Minimalism to the Max

from A Piece of Work Hosted by WNYC Studios, MoMA

Some artworks seem crazy simple -- like a stack of metal boxes or a group of white paintings. Minimalism rejected the idea that art should express the artist’s feelings or depict the visible world, or even be made from traditional art materials. Jo Baer and Donald Judd made art that explores the relationship between colors or objects and space -- and Abbi discovers there's more to simplicity than meets the eye. Also featuring: Mark Joshua Epstein, Flavin Judd View the artwork from this episode at wnyc.org/minimalism ---- About the podcast: From WNYC Studios and MoMA, A Piece of Work is everything you want to know about modern and contemporary art but were afraid to ask.
